Story Of Us (feat. Andy Cizek)
Anup Sastry
I often wonder
Who or what might be out there
How do we communicate?
Will we discover
Other worlds in the ether
Before we evaporate?
Since my imagination's reach
Is farther than my eyes can see
I must devise a way
To travel through this plane
Of existence
Before it's too late
To satisfy ambition
Still gazing at the stars
I offer this transmission
This is who we really are
Manifested as a work of art
Our translation of
What it means to be alive
So do you feel as we have felt
Will you invest in all our story tells?
Explorations of
A species that you've survived
Looking up to the heavens
Staring at a black canvas
Speckled with breathtaking celestial beauty
I'd love to meet the artist
Responsible for all this
Secrets of the great unknown
Flowing through me
We took the very essence of our souls
And cast it out into the universe
And so our message in a bottle floats
Somewhere deep within the cosmic ocean
I hope
In some way they may understand
Green grass and blue skies
A sunset tapestry of mother nature
Bestowed with fragments from the heart of man
Without a language only emotion translates
Say hello to the dreamers of planet earth
Imparting all that we know
In hopes it will show
Everything we're made of
We implore you to measure our planet's worth
A chance to look at ourselves
If life somewhere else isn't just a fable
To exist
Is to dream
The abyss
Calls to me
No endeavor teaches us about ourselves
Better than this self-made memoir could
I hope this letter reaches through and finds you well
And that our chemistry is understood
A child's laughter
A lover's heartbeat
Nations of hope and promise
From which that you cannot see
Do you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Lovely reminder
Of what it all means
To be a living
Beathing consciousness in apogee
Do you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Oh
My ravaged soul
Searches for something
So out of reach
Far
From the earth
Our spirit rings
This is who we really are
Manifested as
A work of art
Our translation of what
It means to be alive
So do you feel as we have?
Will you hear the story
Of us?
